I have not posted a blog since 30th of april..and loads have happened in these few days..well i m in penang now..i came back home for my driving exam and guess what?? i failed :( however no worries i'll be retaking it again on the 22nd(which is freaking long) i can retake the test on the 15th of may,which is next week but i m coming back on the 17th with jo to spend time with her.. guess i just have to wait again..and i have been traveling down alot from home to kl..home,kl,home,kl,home,kl..it's freaking tiring but well have to get use to it,if i m on the music line ..more touring and business to come in my way..well college has been fun and it has been keeping me busy with music pieces,homeworks,band rehearsals and sight reading.The best thing about music is i got to be creative and innovative towards arrangements,composing(will come to that later..i can't compose anything yet) and many more..well personally i cant play any melodic instrument,however i m force to learn the piano(which i never really got interested in it,and jo be patient if you are going to teach me :P) but to compose,i have to learn the piano and i admit is kinda fun learning and playing the piano(except with a theory book infront of you :P)..well i play the drums,which only includes "rudiments",coordination,time signature and groove..so i cant do much..the only thing i can do is provide the groove and rhythm..and honestly i feel sucky :( well the only thing i can do is to learn as much as i can in college and get networks from everyone..i m writing this down on my computer..and i feel relax at home..without any nagging from uncle and aunty(oops :P)..plus i have been motivated to jazz music again and tried to mimic buddy rich and max roach's "mister hi hat" but failed :( however i m trying to learn their style of playing..max roach's melodic solo's and buddy rich's fast hand techniques..well my drumming has been downgraded :( no creativity in my mind..single strokes has been out of coordination but while i was watching buddy rich's drum solo and got inspired by swing,bebop and gospel from hip hop drummers like thomas pridgen,tony royster jr,aaron spears,teddy campbell and many more..i have been playing drums for the past 6 years and still have alot to learn..well i might have some experience..but yet to be finish or never ending at all to learn..because it will always evolve..music will always evolve around us..well i shall stop here..till then..
